1. Trade for a capable SS for marginal prospects. Absorb the contracts to keep prospect cost at a minimum.
2. Sign a mid level starter(s) like Dan Haren. 3 years 30m
3. Trade excess players at 1B, and OF/DH. This means you Barton and Taylor... assuming anyone wants you two...

Same, but don't think I would go 10 mil a year. I thinkI would top out at about 8 mil a year. There are also some questions about his health, so I don't know if teams will be willing to pay that much for him. Maybe his price will be a lot lower than expected.

I actually think Haren's value is dropping rapidly. On a similar note of bringing back old players, there was an article on bleacher report about bringing back one of my favorites..... Swish! I know bleacher report isn't exactly a reliable source, but it was still an interesting read.

Would love Swish back, the author made a lot of valid points and had some good ideas BUT 6-8 million a year? for only 2-3 years? Man I would love him for that, but I think we can all agree that he will get payed a lot more than that and for more than 3 years. I imagine teams will over pay for him, putting him way out of reach.
